The actual strategic axis of Zweig's politics is one more spin on the

coalition requires a direct appeal to class interests and identity, while
continuing to address the problems of racism and sexism that remain
important sources of suffering across class lines," Zweig says.

I notice there's not been a peep on this list about the Swift raids. Big
